It rains on Adrianne Palicki's London premiere, but will that mean a washout for GI JOE at the box office?

Sadly, I can name more projects that Adrianne Palicki has been in that have tanked than I can think of successful ventures she was attached to. Going from most recent, G.I. JOE: RETALIATION was yanked at the last minute from its 2012 release so that the people producing it could fiddle around and manage a 3D release (and get more Channing Tatum footage crammed in, I'm guessing). Then there's the poorly received and underachiever at the box office, RED DAWN, the remake that sat on the shelves unreleased for nearly 4 years before it was quickly out and gone. The Wonder Woman pilot which never got picked up? After all that hype? The really intriguing show, "Lone Star," which, despite being worth watching, couldn't find an audience to save itself before it was yanked off the air after a couple of episodes. I personally really like Palicki. I'm a huge fan of her work in the Sebastian Gutierrez films, WOMEN IN TROUBLE and ELEKTRA LUXX. So what's it going to take? Getting between a Channing and a Rock place?

Debby Ryan is legally, lethally redheaded in leather

Former Disney starling, Debby Ryan is working on releasing her first solo album. While she too has the young face of say, Sarah Hyland, she's older than she looks, even if there are probably a number of you who think 19-years old is still not all that old. Unfortunately for any of you who might be thinking about trying her music out, Ryan is describing it as being "like Taylor Swift." Then again, she also attempts to compare it to Mumford & Sons, which is only suitable for those douches who like to comment about members of that band being whiny and getting their periods like Taylor Swift does. Although, when I allow myself to think about crazy shit like that, I find myself believing that Taylor Swift doesn't have a menstrual cycle. Otherwise, we would have heard a song about it already and how it let her down. Being MEN and all... (Sorry, Tay, you went into Jordan Sparks territory when you bagged on Tina Fey & Amy Poehler when they suggested jokingly that you needed to stay away from Michael J Fox's son and go have some "me time.")

Jennifer Love Hewitt sets a new STNDRD for hotties

Jennifer Love Hewitt has been making me feel like a very lucky punk lately. She feels like a high school crush who broke my heart, went away for several years to talk to ghosts like a crazy person, and then came back into my life to wear lingerie and give me massages. Feels good, man. Let's just hope this story has a happy ending (bud 'em che'). J-Love seems to have noticed the many dedicated fans who've lusted after her after all these years, and she's even acknowledging the fact in this spread for STNDRD magazine, because who needs vowels when you look this FCKNG SXY? In these photos, Jennifer appears to be in some dudes old bedroom, where he for some reason has a "Party of Five" poster hung up on his wall. I guess we're supposed to get the idea that she's fulfilling one of her fan's most long-awaited fantasies, and it could be one of us! While it's pretty cool of her to do something like this, Jennifer seems to think she's kind of overrated: "I don't consider myself crush worthy but I have definitely played parts that are". I have a 12-year-old letter with your name on it that says different, Jennifer.

Adriana Lima makes you want to be a bicycle seat

She's making me feel awfully jealous of biking equipment anyway. Looks like Adriana Lima was filming a thing for some sort of Victoria's Secret gear somewheres, proving how completely awesome it is to be a women's bike seat. Maybe I'm just a perv (no maybes about it), but there's always been something erotic about a woman straddling a bike seat. Perhaps it's the clearly phallic look of the typical seat and the way a woman must plant themselves on it, their inner thighs wrapped around it tight, their asses spreading off it as they work their legs up and down. Pretty sure that's what Freddie Mercury was getting at with that Fat Bottom Girls song - just big, plump asses engulfing tiny bike seats. Although why Freddy found that appealing remains a mystery. Unlike Freddie, my appreciation for the logistics at play when a woman mounts a bike are instantly turned to revulsion when the bike-rider switches to being a guy. Same process, completely different reaction. I've almost caused wrecks for fear of man ass on bicycle seats. That's just not anything I want to see.

The many faces of Olivia Wilde at SXSW 2013

Olivia Wilde was all over the place at South By Southwest this year, going to movie premieres and attending the obscure panel discussions. What was more impressive were her rather startling appearance modifications for these various events. Just look at her in these pics. You got that first set where she's kind of laid back with her hair down. Then you have the second set where she's much more proper and formal and apparently hiding about 6 inches of hair somehow. Then you have the last set of pics where she goes into some kind of vaguely Asian, 70s feminist activist look. Also notice how in all these she looks slightly stoned. Well, it is SXSW after all. There's more than one way to go green at that event, I can assure you. Glad to see Olivia was having a good time. She deserves it.

Alison Brie and Gillian Jacobs make for a tough decision

Normally I'm content to give Alison Brie the clear win in comparisons with other hotties (with one exception). Though I have to admit that her Community co-star Gillian Jacobs is giving her a run for her money here, particularly with her red hair and sexy little dress. Both ladies were at Paley Fest yesterday, no doubt doing their best to keep the dedicated Community Community feeling chuffed about their favorite show. Frankly, I think all the trouble that show has endured in it's relatively brief run has taken its toll. It's just not quite as polished as it once was. That probably has a lot to do with the show's creator, Dan Harmon, taking a powder thanks to NBC's determination to completely screw up everything they touch. I don't really miss Chevy Chase, but that's been true of Chevy for the last quarter century or so. Seeing how godawful most everything on NBC is lately, it's no surprise they're just itching to sabotage perhaps their only remaining hot property. Makes you wonder if NBC is trying to deliberately steer off the cliff. I swear, if the FCC announced tomorrow that broadcasting nudity was okay, NBC would respond by making nothing but Amish cop shows and evangelical Christian singing competitions.
